Despite the lack of a report for the last couple of weeks, things are happening with 5305la’s charges. 70013 is packing her bags ready to come to Loughborough, 45305 is going up in the world, the coach is ripening in the late autumn sunshine, the diesels have been working and 30777 is available for traffic, but our regular reporter has been busy with work recently and hasn’t had time to put finger to keyboard. Normal service will be resumed shortly.
